Homotopy Lifting Property
If we have a homotopy H : X × → Y and a cover p : Y → Y and we are given a map h0 : X → Y such that H0 = p ○ h0 (h0 is called a lift of h0), then we can lift all H to a map H : X × → Y such that p ○ H = H. The homotopy lifting property is used to characterize fibrations.

Famous quotes containing the words lifting and/or property:
“The little lifting helplessness, the queer
Whimper-whine; whose unridiculous
Lost softness softly makes a trap for us.
And makes a curse.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“Only the old are innocent. That is what the Victorians understood, and the Christians. Original sin is a property of the young. The old grow beyond corruption very quickly.”
—Malcolm Bradbury (b. 1932)
